Great Cooks on Eight

The amazing view from the 8th floor of The Bay. Great Cooks on Eight is a restaurant in Downtown Toronto that is only open at lunch (which is not surprising since it was pretty packed at lunch)

The set up of the restaurant - high chairs!

The elegant menu

Ploughman's lunch - looked amazing and my coworker said he really enjoyed it as well! There were all these cheeses, butters, a fig with nuts and blue cheese, meats and some gourmet toasted bread.

The sandwich of the day! Curried Goat Sandwich on a Rosemary Focaccia bun with arugula, goat cheese and a marmalade spread. I also got the Greens side salad which was light and refreshing.

OMG it was delicious! The lamb was perfect! It wasn't too gamy and with the combination of the focaccia, arugula, goat cheese and the marmalade - it was absolutely amazing. So delicious and super filling (as you can tell by all the meat stacked up in the sandwich). I would definitely recommend this sandwich to everyone (even lamb meat haters) - it's great! Total treat for your tastebuds! The only downside? It's $12-14 for a sandwich at Great Cooks on Eight. Yikes! But totally worth it for an occasional indulgence.
